17? That's insane! Sucks when things come easy and they don't give crap. How tall was he?

He was only 5'4". I measured his arms when he was fluffy and with a pump at almost 18 inches which is nuts. Yeah I know everyone supposedly has 20 inch arms  ::) :D

It suck when those with wonderful genes don't give a crap. I would have done anything to have had the genes for top level bodybuilding.

I have another friend whose arms I measured at a legit 21 when he was barely out of his teens. Now we are both over 40 and his biceps are literally like 3 of mine. It's more like his arms are as big as my quads. Genetics are a bitch :'( :D

Do you take a lot of pics Fortress? You don't seem like a picture whore either.

No, I don’t.

Don’t give much of a shit about pictures.

The workout supplied was pretty good though, made a lot of regular folks bust their ass compared to what was a general fitness workout back then.

No, the workout was not pretty good.  It was a whole burnout to failure forced negatives nonsense routine specifically designed to not be completed so that they could always claim it was your failure to do their "tough workout" that was the problem and not that they were fraudsters

I only did the Cybergenics Phase 1 kit. I think you were supposed to increase your food drastically for 2 weeks even before you started the specific program and supps  :D

Lol I don’t even consider it a sport, funny when other bbers  refer to other bbers as “athletes”

Illumanati is mad he isn’t an “athlete” of any sort, and what he spends his free time in is just a hobby/pageant contest...... never said there was anything wrong with that

I don’t find it to be negative to point out that bbing isn’t a real sport, doesn’t mean I don’t follow working out, being active and living a healthy lifestyle

Nope not angry or mad in the slightest
Just can’t figure why all the verbal negativity
Personally I can’t stand Football, Horse racing, Marathon running & many other “Sports or Pastimes”
The last thing I’d think of doing or want to do is post on those boards constantly about how bad the “Sport”
Is how much drugs they may take & Generally be Negative 👎🏻 I’d thoroughly expect the other board members to Tell Me To Fuck Off.
And they’d be Right to.

Still you carry on being Bitter & Negative 🙄 👍🏻

I met Franco when he was a rising “thing” in bodybuilding. At his best.

Not too tall ... and he was very angry and pissy. His face had a constant expression like he just learned his car was stolen and he smelled a rancid fart at the same time.

He was the classic Angry Little Man.

Good physique, though, even if he is a manlet.

Yeah, he just seemed hacked off, even while being friendly with people.

But like I say, he had a really cool physique.

Quite the opposite, you are the one upset for me saying that bbing isn’t a real sport, I don’t see where I was being negative or bitter

You can be into bbing and working out without following competitive bbing

I have zero concerns about what you think BBing is.
Very true you can into training & BB without any interest in competitive BB

You could also not be so Bitter / Angry/ Negative/ upset about what you believe BB do & do not take.
Concentrate on your own Training & Leave what you don’t like out of it.
Makes you sound / come across very Bitter & Twisted.

Lots of young bodybuilders got pro tickets early on.  Genetics show themselves early in the game.

Yes the italians are small people with even smaller brains. No personalities and awful English. You know you’ve got a country full of retards when they’re in Europe and not an ounce of English between the lot of them.
